Bomb Squad

Five time bombs are hidden in a maze of 27 by 17 rooms, dug at random and seen through a scrolling window. Find and touch each bomb to defuse it. When all five are defused the exit lights up, and you must walk out before the three-minute clock runs out. A charge, once picked up, lets you blow away one wall. The level, NOVICE, AMATEUR, EXPERT or MASTER, sets how much of the maze the window shows and how fast it moves: NOVICE sees a lot, MASTER only a little. SAME MAZE plays the last maze again, with blown walls rebuilt, so you can learn it, and the most time left is kept for each level.

The rules and timing were traced from the original's machine code, and the cyan walls and green border are as on the Commodore 64. The music, Cut the Red Wire and Tick Tock, is new.

Controls: either controller. The stick moves you through the maze; to blow a wall, hold the button and push the stick against it.
